# RootDO [![AUR](https://img.shields.io/aur/version/rdo.svg)](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rdo/)
# RootDO
This project aims to be a very slim alternative to both sudo and doas.
### Installation
If you are on Arch Linux, you can download the package via the [AUR](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rdo/).
You can clone and build rdo with the following set of commands:
```sh

rdo - [command]
```
`rdo` will ask for your password and grant you a session, on successful authentication you will be able to use `rdo` for the time specified in `session_ttl`. You have 3 attempts to enter the correct password.
The configuration file has the following variables:
```

- `group`: The group of users that is allowed to execute rdo.
- `wrong_pw_sleep`: The amount of milliseconds to sleep at a wrong password attempt. Must be a positive integer. Set to 0 to disable.
- `session_ttl`: The amount of minutes a session lasts. Must be a positive integer. Set to 0 to disable.
- `wrong_pw_sleep`: The amount of milliseconds to sleep at a wrong password attempt. Must be a positive integer. Set to 0 to disable. Defaults to 1000.

### Benchmarks
### License
The benchmark: Execute `whoami` (GNU coreutils 9.1) 10000 times.
Yes, this is a silly benchmark. Yes, the performance gain in real world application is close to nothing.
But it's fun!

Baseline | 7.95s
> Baseline here is how long it took without any wrapper to make it root.
These benchmarks were done on a `Intel i5 7200U` processor, on a Debian 12 Docker container.
`sudo` and `doas` were pulled from the Debian repos, `rdo` was compiled locally.
All configs were kept as default, except allow the `wheel` group on both + enable `persist` on doas.
The benchmark can be executed through a Docker container by running:
```
make bench-build bench-run
```
